definitely Blessed by Rachel Lampa

I don't listen to a lot of Christian music now, but I used to. I like the old stuff....even hyms.

My old time favorite is Make My life a Prayer to You by Keith Green.

And I love the hyms How Great Thou Art, and It is Well with my Soul/

Benny Hester wrote it and recorded it in 1985. They redid it much, much later.

The song is special to me because it came out the same year I became a believer. It just spoke to me.

It is hard to say which songs top my list it varies on the mood at the time.

If I am having to make a hard choice I would have to put "Revelation" by Third Day.
If I am rocking out it would be "Rebirthing" by Skillet.
If I am being goofy I go for "love Addict" by Family Force 5.
If I am feeling old time I would go after "Me and God" by Josh Turner.


Which all these songs have a good drum part to them and since I play drums for the church that maybe why they are at the top.

"When God Ran" is one of my favorite songs ever. I like the PC&D version.

Also by PC&D is ""Crucified with Christ"

Rich Mullins, ""If I Stand"

Gaithers, Guy Penrod, ""The Old Rugged Cross Made the Difference"

Those are my favorite songs. I can't choose just one.

If I Stand by Rich Mullins
and
He Was One of Us by Geoff Moore (and the Distance)
and
Just Over the Horizon by 4Him

are some of my favorites.


The best Christian song of all time I know, and it can grab at my throat and refuse to come out when I sing it...

Jesus Loves Me

It doesn't need a mixer board, or anything electric, just a nice starting note.

Nice thread, y'all.

I've heard the last two of the David Martin songs, but not the first.

BTW, whatever became of him? It's like he popped up in the mid-1980s, then vanished.
